Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

ATHLETIC: An exoskeleton countermeasure exercise device for resistive and plyometric training in deep‐space missions

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Prolonged exposure to weightlessness leads to loss of muscle and bone mass. Therefore, astronauts on board the International Space Station (ISS) currently perform mandatory daily exercises. ISS missions usually last 6 months, and future missions will become significantly longer when going, for example, to Mars.

The effect of repeated hot water immersion on microvascular function, glycaemic control and inflammation in White European and South Asian males

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Individuals of South Asian (SA) descent display a higher risk for cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus than their White European (WE) counterparts. Heat therapy, such as hot water immersion (HWI), can improve microvascular function and glycaemic control, although effects across racial groups are unknown.

Development of and adherence to artificial gravity and resistive vibration exercises during 60 days of hypoxic 6° head‐down tilt bed rest: BRAVE study

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Artificial gravity (AG) combined with resistive vibration exercise has been proposed as a multi‐system countermeasure for long‐duration spaceflight; however, its operational feasibility during prolonged unloading remains insufficiently characterised.
